But you cannot remove (speak: make transparent) the, let's say white, background of your image and keep the parts inside. LibreOffice Draw/Impress has a color replacer ( ) that works on a certain RGB value. There is a lot of calculation behind, that starts with the identification of possible interesting parts, outlining an area per pixel, and the least difficult thing to mark the other pixels as fully transparent. The function is called "Remove background" and described here Maxim adjusted the attachment type to zip, it works now.

So there’s a chance we could see Stranger Things 4 as soon as October of 2021, assuming the current pattern holds. Season one premiered in July 2016 season two came in October of 2017. The Duffer brothers have said themselves that they plan to keep the show going for four seasons and then quit, while executive producer Shawn Levy has suggested the series could stretch just one more season after that. It undercuts the effective moments of sorrow that made up the end of the season.Netflix has yet to renew Stranger Things for a fourth season, but a return does seem almost guaranteed, given Stranger Things’ status as one of Netflix’s most successful originals the network recently bragged that Stranger Things 3 set a new viewing record. Still, there's something a little disappointing about Hopper's likely return. (Alas, it seems like a Hellboy sequel is unlikely.) Harbour's currently in the middle of filming Marvel's Black Widow movie, but otherwise, his slate is free. A fourth season has been teased and is essentially a given even, though it hasn't been officially announced by Netflix. Harbour could very well return, especially given that Stranger Things often takes its time between seasons. Maybe he got sucked into the Upside Down when the gate closed and the Russians fished him out of it? Or maybe someone grabbed him in the process of escape? Compare Hopper's death to that of Billy (Dacre Montgomery), who gets impaled in multiple ways by the Mind Flayer: One is pretty clearcut, the other is, well, not. Because, come to think of it, we never actually saw him turn to goo, the way some soldiers did. The surprise of the sequence is the reappearance of the season one bad guy, but the "American" comment is more of a clue as to what's to come. "Not the American," he says, and, lo, a random poor soul is fed to a Demogorgon. In a Russian facility of sorts a guard calls for a prisoner. It's a touching coda to his story, and yet something doesn't feel as final as maybe it should be.Ĭue the mid-credits sequence. As they pack, Joyce finds a note from Hopper, the emotional speech he was going to make to El. The conclusion of the season finds the Byers, now with El as part of their family, in mourning as they prepare to finally get the hell out of Hawkins. When she does the room is obliterated, and when she looks back for Hopper, he's gone. By the time Hopper kills his foe, it's too late for him to reach safety, Joyce must switch the device off. He and Hopper do battle, putting them on the platform right next to what is set to go kablooey. Just as Hopper and Joyce are about to simultaneously turn the keys that will kill the machine that Russian spies have been using to let the body-snatching mind flayers into small town Indiana, the Terminator-like lackey who has been tracking our protagonists appears. So, by the time his tragic end arrives, he's not quite the sympathetic hero he used to be. Toward the end of the season, though, creators The Duffer Brothers transform Hopper into an action star who has no problem with brutal violence - whether that means pummeling a shady mayor or mowing down some Russian guards with a machine gun. That's all to say he spends a lot of time yelling at women who have already had a lifetime's worth of trauma, all because he doesn't like who they are or aren't kissing. Meanwhile, he himself is pissed that Joyce (Winona Ryder) seems to be uninterested in smooching up on him. He's angry that Mike (Finn Wolfhard) and Eleven are having makeout sessions in his home, and essentially breaks them up. The caring dad - who many also found to be "daddy" - is fully flustered with the prospect of raising a hormonal teenager. Hopper's evolution from gruff law enforcement official with a tortured past to offbeat father figure takes a turn this year. Is David Harbour's Sheriff Hopper, adoptive father to El, killed in the explosion that put an end to the Russian Upside Down experiments that created more problems for Hawkins? Or does he somehow manage to survive? For a while, it certainly seems like the former, but then a sneaky post-credits scene comes along and redefines what we thought we saw. The end of Stranger Things' third batch of episodes leaves viewers in a similar spot. Of course, no one really thought Eleven was gone for good, and sure enough, she was back when the show returned for its second installment. The only sign of her left: the Eggo waffles Hopper leaves in a snow-covered box in hopes of her return. At the end of season one, the mysterious, super-powered girl known as Eleven (Millie Bobby Brown) disappears in the dust of the Demogorgon. Stranger Things has faked its audiences out before. This story contains spoilers about the end of Stranger Things 3. “Look,” said David-he was now getting a little bit irritated-“even if you were Gregory Peck, I’d still have to get a top woman co-star.” “Oh, no, I could carry the picture myself,” Cornel is reported to have said. “But I’d have to get you a top woman star and-” “It isn’t so much the cost of the story,” interrupted the producer. “Can’t you see,” Cornel concluded enthusiastically, “it would be terrific!” Selznick shook his head and said, “Maybe-but I can’t afford it.” And Cornel was trying to sell Selznick the idea of buying his “Lord Byron” story with Cornel of course to star as the romantic poet. His black eyes were shining, his black hair was tossing His voice was irresistible. Cornel was at the top of his persuasive form. Take for example an incident at a recent party. He’s still fighting that old world that didn’t understand or appreciate him. Consequently, instead of being happy with his good fortune he’s still defensive about Hollywood and producers. His life went into high speed so fast following “A Song to Remember” that he had no time to shift gears. But they are not, I dare say, nearly as unhappy and confused as Cornel himself. Those who remain Cornel’s friends-personal or professional-are unhappy and confused about him. This makes for headlines and confusion and an inaccurate picture of a man suffering from a severe case of chip on the shoulder. It all adds up to this: Items that make spectacular reading are given prominence, while news more favorable to Cornel, but less dramatic, is not played up in the same way. You read, too, that Cornel refused to appear in “Walls of Jericho.” And a few editions later it’s announced-but much less conspicuously-that he has curtailed his New York holiday to report at the studio for this very role. However, before you have time to digest this news, coming as it does on top of their public declarations of devotion, they have left for Hawaii and a reconciliation honeymoon. You read that he and Pat Knight Wilde have separated. Items, some blind, others using his name, paint his difficult temperament.

However, after you take the first photo, you will see that new options appear for you to take additional photos and navigate through all the photos you have taken.Ĭounting photos submitted, and limiting how many photos can be submitted When using the multiline appearance you will initially not see much of a difference in your form. Support for the multiline appearance for image questions was added in version 3.10. For now, lets start with the multiline appearance: There are good cases for both approaches. If you want users to submit more than one photo with your survey, you can either add multiple image questions or alternatively use the multiline appearance on an image question. Here is a visual representation of what the user experience looks like using the different method parameter options:Īnd here is what an XLSForm looks like if you want to force users to submit a new photo from the camera: If you want to give users a choice, leave the the body::esri:style column empty or set the method parameter to camera,browse. If method is set to browse, users will need to browse for an existing photo. If the method parameter is set to camera, users will need to capture a photo using the camera. The method parameter in the body::esri:style XLSForm column lets you specify if both methods are allowed, or just one. If you are designing a survey for inspectors to document code violations, for example, you may want them always to take a new photo with the camera, and not allow browsing of existing photos in the device. Sometimes, you want to have control over the source of the photo. Otherwise, the photo question will be presented to the user as optional.Ĭontrolling the source of the photo: Camera versus browseīy default, the Survey123 web and field apps will let end users either take a new photo using the camera or browse for an existing photo in the device. If the severity of the incident is high, then a photo must be submitted. In the next XLSForm example, an expression is used in the required column to determine if a photo must be submitted. Like any other question type, you can use the required column to define if the end user must submit data for your question or not. If you want your users to submit a photo through your smart form, you will include a question of type image.
